Global perspectives, focusing on Europe
Suzuki Swift was the first product of Suzuki's radical innovation program to strengthen its position as a market leader in compact cars and one of the brands in the world's first motorcycle. It introduced new ideas and design thinking that define the new models much more than Suzuki in the coming years.
Suzuki Swift is a global outlook and production - it is built in Japan, Hungary, China and India - but the development was focused on the needs and tastes of the European market in terms of design and conduct . In fact, the first stage of team development was to establish a base in Europe, where he was able to get valuable information about the European mentality and learn from the European environment. And much of the chassis development and the improvement was based on intelligence gained through real world road and track extensive testing across the continent.
The result is an innovative, sporty design and elegant with a real international appeal. As new designs early Suzuki, Swift style develops themes first seen in the Concept S and Concept-S2 show cars and displays the willingness of society to develop original interpretations of well-established market segments.
The designers consciously avoided the tendency to "while a" uniform, rather than producing a design of actions with a clear cap. Muscular, flared wheel arches, bold sills, wheels pushed out of every corner, and a waistline broad shoulders that continues all the way for the lights to express the inherent stability of the car and call dynamic.
The characteristic shape of the tailgate combines with the large rear bumper to give a lower body looks solid. At the top of the tailgate, the rear edge of the roof gives the form of a spoiler to improve aerodynamics and burning a 1 kg block of precious metals in the traditional spot.

Cockpit instrument is relatively low for good forward visibility and reinforce the sense of the cabin opening. A three-gauge instrument cluster has a tachometer with a needle that rests in the 6:00 position, reflecting sports bike convention, and a digital information display that shows time, fuel consumption and temperature outside is mounted centrally on the front edge of the fascia.
The radio / CD player is fully integrated into the dashboard and can be operated either by using the One Touch button on the device or additional controls mounted on the steering wheel three-spoke sport. Large, dial-type controls for heating and ventilation, or SZ3, SZ4, and SZ3 DDiS models, standard air conditioning (and the automatic control of temperature on the SZ4) is located below the audio system.
